May The Kit Be With You

Another month, another kit to copy. Welcome to May's Master Forger Blog Hop ... did you reach me from Angela, via our Guest Forger Laura? If not, the start of the hop is published on the Counterfeit Kit Challenge Blog today.

I was so pleased to spot some Crate Paper Boys Rule designs in the kits-to-copy: S J Crafts sent me quite a few bits of the collection to play with (see my pages here and here) and the remaining goodies made a great starting point to my counterfeit kit. I added plenty of alpha stickers, stars, travel cards from Simple Stories, bicycles from Cosmo Crickets's Boyfriend collection scraps and some camera washi tape.

LOL - not really like the original, but who cares as long as I use up the stash!

The fibres are a completely random addition! They have been languishing
in a drawer for too many years and I'm starting a new trend!! ;-D
Or I
will be if enough of you also dig out your unloved fibres and join in!

Julene is next on the tour for scrappy kit inspiration, but you might also like to stop by S J Crafts Blog for a fun challenge here to get you scrappingwith your kit (and you'll also see a page I made for them with an entirely different kit).

I also think it's not as far from the original as you think :-) Has a real Jemma feel to it too. As for the fibres, I'll reserve judgement. I have a pile from BasicGrey that I'd love to use - loved them so much at the time. You show me some good uses for them and I'll consider dragging mine out

That's my kind of kit Jemma, love travel themes and those colours. Can't wait to see what you make with them. ONE of these days I'm going to play along - the idea of counterfeiting really appeals to me.I got my fibres out last week and shook the dust off. Great minds think a like!

Haven't seen my fibers in years, but I've still got 'em! I think I will take you up on that when the weather turns cooler as they seem to suit that better...I think you stayed right on target with the kit, except of course for the pink :~)
